Vasil Kiryienka will ride on in Team Sky kit next season. The British Worldtour outfit delivered the news via a short Twitter video on Friday.
Coming over from Movistar in 2013, Kiryienka, has served as a key component in Sky's Grand Tour squads, making nine Grand Tour starts in his five years with the team. He supported Chris Froome during three of his four career Tour de France victories, including this season's.
